It’s all happening in Canberra, the nation’s capital and a beautifully–designed city of sweeping avenues, impressive buildings, leafy suburbs and important tourist attractions. Just a few hours’ drive from Sydney and close to both farming heartlands and the holiday playgrounds of the southern snowfields, Canberra has a population of around 340,000, with another 200,000 across the south–eastern region of NSW.

Canberra’s workforce comprises approximately 200,000 people, made up of 190,000 residents and approximately 10,000 people who commute from nearby population centres in New South Wales. Unsurprisingly, given that it’s the seat of our national parliament, many of these are employed in the public service, although more than half (approximately 115,000 people) are employed in the private sector.

Canberra has the lowest rate of unemployment and the highest labour force participation rate in Australia. Canberrans are the most highly–educated citizens in the country – for example, 12.9% have a post–graduate degree, compared with the national average of 5.9%. Interestingly, they also seem to work harder, with only 0.1 of a working day lost per 1,000 employees in the ACT for the year to September 2007; well below the national figure of 8.8 days!

Average weekly earnings are approximately $1280 per week, 16% higher than the national average, and Canberra also boasts the greatest number of restaurants per capita in Australia. Shopping is also a popular past–time, with an annual retail turnover of $377 million (in the year to December 2007).

Sport, music, theatre, higher education and research are all a part of community life in this diverse city. Canberra is also home to many of Australia’s national representative bodies and professional societies.
